Customer Care

Tell us how we’ve done

We try our best to deliver a great customer experience, and we love to hear how well we’ve done. However, we understand that sometimes things go wrong, and we want to hear about that too so we can make things right. Please find the complaints form at the bottom of the page if you wish to register a complaint with us.

Our commitment to you

Our customers really matter to us and we are committed to providing a great customer experience. We try to explain things in a straightforward way and take time to listen to you and act on what you tell us. If any issues do arise, our aim is to resolve them as quickly as possible and make sure you are satisfied with the outcome.

The Customer Resolution Team

All complaints will be dealt with fairly and impartially, and all information that you provide will be treated confidentially. Once we have received your complaint, we'll do everything we can to resolve it quickly.

If we can resolve your complaint within 5 business days following the day we receive it, we'll confirm the outcome in a letter to you and explain how you can refer to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) if you are dissatisfied with the outcome of your complaint.

For the more complex issues we may need more time to investigate, and if this is the case, we'lll acknowledge your complaint within 5 business days of receipt of your complaint outlining the next steps and when you can expect to hear from us. We'll provide you with a reference number for your complaint in case you need to contact us. We'll contact you to discuss your complaint should we need further information from you.

Our aim is to resolve your complaint within 8 weeks from when we first received it, and once resolved we'll send you a Final Response Letter. If we are unable to resolve your complaint within 8 weeks, our letter at this time will explain why and give you a timescale of when we think we'll be able to send you a final response. This letter will also include your Financial Ombudsman Service rights.

To ensure we can contact you if we need too, please make sure we have a valid email address and contact telephone number. You can send us this information via the complaint form found at the bottom of the page.

Motor Commission Complaints

If you used motor finance to buy a car, van or motorcycle we may have paid a commission to the car dealer or the person that arranged your finance. The Financial Conduct Authority has paused the handling of motor finance commission complaints and has given lenders until 31 May 2026 before they need to start responding to those complaints.

You can find more information on the Financial Conduct Authority website.

If you’ve already made a complaint about motor finance commission, you don’t need to do anything further, we’ll respond after the Financial Conduct Authority pause ends.

If you've not made a complaint about potential motor finance commission and now want to, please complete the webform below with as much detail as possible.

Supreme Court Ruling on 01 August 2025 & Financial Conduct Authority Consultation

On 01 August 2025, the Supreme Court issued its decision about motor commission payments. The Financial Conduct Authority released a consultation paper in October 2025 to develop a redress scheme to compensate impacted customers. The scheme is currently paused until the Financial Conduct Authority release the final rules.

Financial Conduct Authority Motor Commission Complaints Handling Pause

On 11 January 2024, the Financial Conduct Authority announced its plan to review historical motor finance Discretionary Commission Arrangements across the whole motor finance industry. The Financial Conduct Authority therefore paused the need to respond to complaints about Discretionary Commission Arrangements.

The Financial Conduct Authority has paused the handling of motor finance commission complaints and has given lenders until 31 May 2026 before they need to start responding to those complaints.

Temporary Changes to Motor Commission Complaint Time Limits

Because the Financial Conduct Authority has paused the handling of motor finance commission complaints until 31 May 2026, the time limits have been amended as follows: 

We'll have until 26 July 2026 (that is 8 weeks from 31 May 2026) to respond to your motor finance commission complaint and only after that date will you be able to ask the Financial Ombudsman Service to look at your complaint.

You'll have 6 months to refer motor finance complaints to Financial Ombudsman Service for final responses sent after 29 January 2026. The date that applies to you will be confirmed in the final response letter. More information on the pause and the timelines is provided on the Financial Conduct Authority website.

If you took out a motor finance agreement before 28 January 2021, it may have included a Discretionary Commission Arrangement. 

If you’re not sure when you took out your motor finance with us, or to help us find out if your agreement included a Discretionary Commission Arrangement, you can ask us using our online form at the bottom of this page selecting the option ‘Make an information request about a Discretionary Motor Commission’. Once we’ve confirmed if your credit agreement was subject to discretionary commission, you can make a Discretionary Commission Arrangement complaint.  

If you took out motor finance with us where your agreement started before 28 January 2021, you may be able to make a Discretionary Commission Arrangement complaint.

Our online form below is the quickest way to make a complaint and only takes a few minutes to complete. Please select ‘Make a complaint about a Discretionary Commission Arrangement’ in the dropdown. Once you’ve submitted your complaint, we’ll send you an email confirming that we’ve received it and it’ll be placed in a queue. We’ll be able to provide further details on the outcome of these complaints once the Financial Conduct Authority have had an opportunity to carry out their investigation and have reached a conclusion. We understand this will be after the 30 January 2026 at the earliest, and we’ll provide a final response in line with the Financial Conduct Authority requirements.

We’re currently experiencing a high volume of enquiries about this, but rest assured once you’ve completed the online form, your complaint has been logged. You only need to submit your complaint once.

On 28 January 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority banned all Discretionary Commission Arrangements. This means the broker couldn’t change the interest rate on a finance agreement or influence any other remuneration they received from a finance provider when a customer took out a motor finance credit agreement after this time. 

This means that if your agreement started after 28 January 2021, you were not affected by the operation of a Discretionary Commission Arrangement.

If you complain directly to us, making a complaint won’t cost you anything. There’s no need to use a claims management company (CMC) or solicitor to do this on your behalf, they can often charge a fee or take a share of any compensation reward that may be due to you.

The Financial Conduct Authority is undertaking a review of the motor finance industry to understand whether there’s been a widespread failure to comply with relevant requirements, resulting in financial loss or harm to customers. Until the Financial Conduct Authority have completed the review, we can’t say whether compensation will be awarded, and if so, how this will be calculated. 

Following the Financial Conduct Authority's announcement that they’ll consult on a potential car finance compensation scheme, they’ve received reports of scammers contacting people. 

These fraudsters are asking individuals for personal information including their name, address, date of birth and bank details. They then falsely claim that people are owed compensation.
 
It's important to remember
There's no car finance compensation scheme in place yet.
 
How to protect yourself
If you receive a call like this, hang up immediately and don’t share any information.
